Description

Hi Guys,

I'm trying to remap my (4) XBOX 360 wireless controllers (so that A / B are swapped). Mapping the first controller works fine, but when I try to remap the 2nd controller for Player 2, it ends up taking over as Player 1 every time.

Manually going back and re-remapping controller 1 as Player 1 doesn't solve the problem. Makes it impossible to remap controllers.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the remapping flow with two Xbox 360 wireless controllers and trace how RetroPad assignments select the player slot. Done means remapping A/B on Player 1 and Player 2 preserves separate controller assignments without one taking over the other.
